conditions. Current "atlantic provinces standard terms and conditions" are

available on the new brunswick opportunities network, the council of

atlantic premiers` website or from an authorized service provider.

A bidder must obtain official bid documents from a distribution service,

authorized by the minister of service new brunswick, in order to submit a

opportunities network (nbon) (operated by service new brunswick,

province of nb), bids (operated by tendering publications ltd.) and

Where the estimated value of the goods or services to be procured is below

the lowest applicable threshold value of any relevant trade agreement,

service new brunswick reserves the right to give preferential treatment to

a prospective supplier from new brunswick or the atlantic region. Should

this right be exercised, the following order of priority will apply: a)

firstly, new brunswick manufacturers if the goods to be procured are

manufactured in new brunswick; b) secondly, new brunswick vendors; and c)

thirdly, atlantic suppliers. The preference will be applied based on the

price differential

between the lowest acceptable bid and the bid receiving preferential

treatment. Unless otherwise indicated, there shall be no limit on the price

differential under which a preference may be applied. The decision to apply

a preference will be at the sole discretion of service new brunswick.

All discounts quoted will be considered to be without limitations.

Payment of invoices is the responsibility of the department or organization

to whom the goods are shipped or services are supplied.

Award of contracts: no contract shall be awarded and no payment shall be

made to a vendor unless authorized by the minister or his delegates. The

minister may make an award to the preferred vendor conditional on the

negotiation and acceptance of a detailed contract between the province and

the vendor. In such cases, should the detailed contract negotiations not be

completed in a reasonable period of time, the province reserves the right

to discontinue negotiations with the vendor and subsequently enter into

negotiations with the second preferred vendor.

No right or duty, in whole or in part, of the vendor under a contract

issued may be assigned or delegated without the prior consent of the

strategic procurement branch.

Unless the strategic procurement branch has determined otherwise prior to

tender closing, all prices must be extended and totaled.

value added and other savings opportunities with the successful proponent
